  2. The Formation of Pearls Natural pearls are indeed gemstones, formed without human intervention. Their creation begins when an irritant, such as a parasite or a piece of shell, becomes trapped inside a mollusk, primarily oysters and sometimes mussels. In response, the mollusk secretes layers of nacre, a combination of aragonite and conchiolin, around the irritant. Over time, these layers accumulate, resulting in a pearl.

  3. Freshwater vs. Saltwater Pearls Freshwater Pearls: Typically found in China, these pearls can be produced in various shapes and colors, with a notable luster. Freshwater pearl farming often yields multiple pearls from a single mollusk. Saltwater Pearls: Including the famous Akoya, Tahitian, and South Sea pearls, these are generally more expensive due to the higher costs associated with saltwater farming and the longer cultivation periods. Saltwater pearls are usually more lustrous and round compared to freshwater pearls.

  4. Ingoude Company Freshwater Pearls Produced in various parts of the world, primarily China, freshwater pearls offer a more affordable yet equally beautiful alternative to saltwater pearls. These pearls come in various shapes, sizes, and colors. While they may not have the same level of luster as saltwater pearls, advancements in farming techniques have significantly improved their quality.

  5. The Unique Structure of Pearls The unique structure of pearls sets them apart from mineral gemstones. Nacre, the substance that forms pearls, is composed of microscopic crystals of calcium carbonate arranged in a complex, overlapping pattern. This structure gives pearls their characteristic luster and iridescence, often referred to as the “orientation” of pearls. The quality of the nacre, including its thickness and uniformity, plays a crucial role in determining a pearl’s value.

  6. Pearls have been cherished by various cultures throughout history. In ancient Rome, pearls symbolized wealth and social status, often worn by the elite. The Egyptians, too, valued pearls and used them as burial items for their pharaohs, believing they had protective and purifying properties. Cultural and Historical Significance Ancient Civilizations
